AMP allows you to rank higher in the mobile search results. However, only valid AMP pages are eligible to be displayed in the search results.

Proper AMP testing is extremely crucial in order to remove any errors or warnings and get your pages indexed by Google.

This guide will help you to understand the types of AMP errors and how you can fix them.

Here are some tools that come in handy when fixing your AMP errors:

Follow the steps below to get started:

Open the AMP page in your browser.Add “#development=1” to the URL, for example, http://localhost:8000/example.amp.html#development=1.Go to the Chrome DevTools console and check for validation errors. The errors will be listed as shown in the below screenshot.

Download the AMP Validator browser extension for Chrome and browse the pages on your site.

This plugin will automatically check each page for AMP validation.

It will turn to green if the page passes AMP validation or turn to red if the page fails the test.

With the help of AMP validator, you can directly paste your source code and check for any possible errors.

This tool will let you know the validation status by displaying PASS or FAIL.

Once you’ve fixed all your AMP errors during the development stage, you can upload them on the main server.

After you upload the pages on the server, recheck the validity of the pages with the help of the AMP test tool by Google.

Once you have validated and uploaded the AMP pages on the main server, the pages will start displaying in Google’s search results. Now, it’s time to regularly monitor the pages with the help of the Google Search Console. There are some errors that you can’t find during the development phase and such errors are identified only after Google crawls and indexes your site.
